Question
Someone who wants to transfer fruit trees located in their yard from one place to another, how should they do it?
Answer
The law of transferring trees from one place to another is the same as the law of uprooting them entirely. If the reason is justified, such as it interfering with construction, etc., or the tree causing harm, it can be uprooted by a non-Jew. If there is no reason, it is forbidden to uproot it at all.
